LG Unveils K7 LTE & K10 LTE Entry-Level Handsets In India

LG G5 is one of the most popular smartphones at the moment. LG has introduced their new flagship during the Mobile World Congress (MWC) in February, and the device currently has limited availability, but will roll out to more markets soon. That being said, LG has introduced quite a few smartphones this year, including the entry-level K7 and K10 handsets which were introduced during the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) back in January.

It was announced quite recently that these two handsets will launch in India on April 14th, and that has just happened. This Korean smartphone manufacturer has introduced the two phones in India, the LG K7 comes in Titan, Gold and White color options, while the K10 will be available in White, Indigo and Gold color variants. The smaller, K7 handset is priced at Rs. 9,500 ($142) in the country, while the larger K10 unit costs Rs. 13,500 ($202). These two devices have been manufactured in India, in the company’s Noida plant, and are launched by telecom and IT minister Ravi Shankar Prasad. The company actually plans to manufacture 1 million smartphones in the Noida plant before the end of this year, in case you were wondering. It is also worth mentioning that the two phones are officially called ‘LG K7 LTE’ and ‘LG K10 LTE’ in India.
